Welcome to the Saltwater Home Concierge Blog!
Hi everyone! Welcome to the first of many blog posts about the home watch business from Saltwater Home Concierge, located on the beautiful shoreline of Connecticut! The goal of this blog is to provide our readers and clients with helpful insights, strategies, and recommendations for all things home watch related.
What Does Home Watch Actually Mean?
Ok, so let’s start with the basics because we get asked this question all the time. The official definition from the National Home Watch Association, “a visual inspection of a home or property, looking for obvious issues.” For homeowners who are frequently away, hiring a Home Watch service is a no brainer. It ensures that your property is regularly monitored and maintained in your absence. At Saltwater Home Concierge, that’s what we do. We conduct thorough inspections of your home, inside and out, looking for any signs of issues that need attention. This can include checking for leaks, ensuring security systems are functional, and making sure your home remains in pristine condition.
Why Is Home Watch Important?
Leaving your home unattended for extended periods can lead to unexpected problems. We know firsthand, with many years of homeownership under our belt, that minor issues can quickly escalate into major headaches if left unchecked. Here are a few reasons why Home Watch is essential:
- Preventing Damage: Regular inspections can identify issues like leaks, mold, or pest infestations early, preventing extensive damage and costly repairs.
- Security: Ensuring that doors and windows are secure, and that no suspicious activity has occurred.
- Maintenance: Routine checks help in maintaining the home’s systems and appliances, ensuring everything remains in good working order.
- Insurance Compliance: Did you know that some insurance policies require regular home checks for coverage to remain valid? A Home Watch service, like Saltwater, helps meet these requirements.
Ok now that the basics are out of the way, stay tuned for more blog posts where we’ll delve deeper into specific topics, share tips for maintaining your home, and offer insights we’ve acquired with our boots on the ground approach to keeping your home safe. Thanks for reading and feel free to reach out if you have any questions or topics, you’d like us to cover in future posts. Your feedback is always welcome!
